The architecture, wood, tile, and decor make this a strikingly beautiful home, and at the same time it is comfortable and welcoming.

The sleeping and living spaces made it just right for our growing family to spend time together. The master bedroom/bathroom is on the upper level, and there is even an office up there. A second bedroom and bath (across the hall from it) are on the main floor, and on the lower level (walkout) are three bedrooms and another bathroom. The lower level was great for the parents with their little children, and the extra living area there provided additional space for them and their toys. There is a covered deck on that level, which came in handy when it rained.

For meals, there is plenty of very nice seating on the upstairs deck. There are several seats at the kitchen bar, too. However, we learned from another reviewer that there were only six chairs at the huge dining room table, so we brought along four folding chairs, which worked out perfectly for us to sit down together when we weren't able to eat outside due to the weather.

Mike was available and accommodating and has made sure that the home is well supplied with paper goods, soaps, detergent, etc., even including a nice selection of k-cup coffees! The dishes, pots, and pans are of good quality, too, and there was plenty of room in the large pantry for us to store the food we brought. The refrigerator is large, and there are even two more in the garage.

This home provided all we needed and more for a wonderful family time together!
